Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Matt Jones has been arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance in Washington County, Arkansas.The Washington County Detention Center web site says (via PFT) that Jones was booked at 4:11 a.m. today. There is no information about what controlled substance he was found to be in possession of, but KFSM in Arkansas reports that a police report says officers found cocaine in a truck that Jones was sitting in, and saw cocaine on Jones' hand.
The incident could subject Jones to league discipline, even if he has never failed a drug test.

BRV you said it loud and clear. If Matt Jones was African American then he would be Village Idiot of the Year but since he is Caucasian he is given a free pass to Six Flags.
